Skytrax has released their yearly rankings of the World's Best Business Class aboard airlines, and Qatar Airlines has taken this year's top spot. It also took home the World's Best Business Class seat and the World's Best Business Class Airline Lounge for their Al Mourjan lounge in Doha. Singapore Airlines took home second place, while Japan's ANA All Nippon Airways won third.

The top five airlines in this category were almost exactly the same as in the main category of the World Airline Awards, just with a switch between third and fourth. Meanwhile, lower in the top 10, this was only one of two main categories of the awards in which an American airline made it into, with Delta Air Lines taking eighth place (the other was Delta taking seventh in the World's Best Premium Economy 2024).
